[Lorn Asbord Schutta]

Also Lorn did charms for these factions presumably to get me to react

I did those charms because when I saw three-colors-three-mana I immedietly thought of making charms and since Alara and Khans had their already and I am not Ikoria fan, I found another option as low-hanging fruit.
But getting you to react was a nice bonus, I cannot lie.

cheetos - Seems like a pretty cool take on Zealous Persecution. I'm curious why you didn't opt for +1/+1 and -1/-1 until end of turn for each time it has mutated? I really wish this had a rarity.

OneAndOnly - Zombies and spirits. Seems good. That's some pretty good power for a what I assume is an uncommon? I really wish this had a rarity. Zombie tokens are typically 2/2, but that's ok.

Cythare - Huh. I just know there's some way some Johnny out there could break this, but it seems ok to me. Retrace on a creature seems fun.

Sporegorger_Dragon - Mortify on a flying body. Seems really good. I'd certainly play it limited.

Ulka - Wow, this is really good. The constant card draw is probably too good, especially at uncommon. Also, it should be "When ~ enters the ...."

Mergatroid_Jones - That's quite the card. This has the potential to pump out a lot of power right away, and that's not even mentioning the activated ability or the fct that its ability could trigger every turn. I feel like this would be pain to play against.

Stapler - This is a fun little card. I like the idea of wondering if you're targeting the correct creature with your removal. Cool stuff.

Krishnath - I'm not so sure how I feel about a monowhite Shade. I do like the idea of a Thrull lord though. I think the activated ability could cost 1 less though. It just seems a little meh for a rare these days. Maybe it's just the existing pool of Thrulls?

Cythare - Yowzers! That's just gotta be broken, right? It's also breaking the exile-as-second-graveyard thing pretty badly.

Meggido - I had to read this like three times, but it seems neat. I don't think this should be able to hit lands though. Seems kinda crazy. I could be wrong.

avatarz - Love me some Birds, although a Spirit would seem like the more obvious choice. Solid card all around.

lookingupanddown - Another Bird. Cool. Seems weird for a creature with flying to have Strider in its name. Also, that's way too powerful a land ramp spell outside of green. I wish this had a rarity.

Mergatroid_Jones - It should be "If a creature card would be..." A 1/1 defender is weird. The graveyard hate is fine, but there's much better elsewhere.

Cythare - Interesting. I like it. Although I kinda wish it was either on a bigger body, or was an enchantment.

Lord Asbord Schutta - I'm pretty sure this is worded incorrectly, but it's late. Card seems ok, but a bit unexciting.

Mergatroid_Jones - I like this, but it's probably too strong though, considering the chain it could start with enchantment creatures. Maybe it should return a noncreature enchantment?

Lorn Asbord Schutta - I'm rich! Seems fine, but I can't see wanting to play it over its alternatives.

Lorn again - That's a lot of words.

void_nothing - I can't believe you made me look up absorb at this time of night. There's an awful lot going on with this card.

Togs - Swell! I likes it.
